#which is pretty high

[langernameohnebedeutung]

ngl, I'm beginning to take issue with how in conversations about anti-intellectualism almost automatically, the face of girls and women will be slapped on the problem.

#'all those tiktok girls who only like marvel films and' - why do you always say girls and women? are the guys filling opera halls instead? #'women in their mid 20s who still only read YA novels' okay sure that's an example and relevant discussions can be had #but it reminds me of the mocking tone in which people speak of 'chick-lit' to use women's interest as an indicator of lower value #while in fact women are reading more than men in EVERY single genre of fiction. Women are doing a lot of (often unpaid) labour #supporting libaries supporting theatres supporting cultural events #meanwhile there is a pretty big overlap between toxic masculinity and anti-intellectualism #(especially misogyny and homophobia) #especially when it comes to things like ballet or opera or musical or generally dance #in fact it is often the female investment in specific things that makes them less 'valuable' in general consciousness #for thousands of years the theatre was well-respected and a high form of art - and now it's a 'wife-thing' #the father who will teach his son that theatre and dance are for girls - how is that never an example for anti-intellectualism

i feel like people are sleeping on the occam's razor situation of how buckwild it is to outright accuse a guy of being a clone of your friend even if you DO have a lot of circumstantial evidence. there's other options is what im saying. they could just be like. a guy. that's a sensible deduction. you should explore that deduction. ignore my shirt that reads I <3 RED HERRINGS.

i still think odile has the correct theory on lock but she's smart enough to know it needs like... a real smoking gun to be able to bring it up without sounding insane.

anyway. (mirabelle voice) i know its rude to speculate but has anyone else noticed the grieving? they seem to be grieving. does anyone have any thoughts on the grieving? i have some thoughts on the grieving.

#[isabeau voice] am i insane or does sometimes loop talk like they might have killed their whole family. is that just me? just checking. #nille design highly inspired by @kiwibrain's since its the one that imprinted in my mind. liberties taken since i didnt look @ reference #anyway i have a lot more thoughts on this? i guess ill hide them in the tags...? scroll down i suppose. #isat #in stars and time #isat spoilers #in stars and time spoilers #isat act 6 spoilers #isat loop #isat siffrin #isat bonnie #isat nille #isat fanart #in stars and time fanart #doodlebyte #---------------------------------------------------------------------- #anyway the extra thoughts. are literally just my general thoughts on postcanon. (and thus are the context for all of my postcanon doodles!) #which is i think nille joins the party before loop reappears for a start (either from a period of nonexistence or just wandering around) #and that like. i think the party should be able to integrate loop as a completely new person. because they are! the secrecy isn't great but #They and Siffrin shuffle into different ecological niches in the party (eg. i think sif is more squeamish after it all but loop isnt) #and while it's not *exactly* what Loop wanted they get that beggars can't be choosers. and its pretty good #(i am glossing over how i think loop's reappearence drags both them and siffrin into a massive behavioural backslide and is likely a bit #distressing to watch go down. cycle of argument -> lovebombing -> normalcy -> repeat. etc etc. but since they are no longer literally #stewing in the worst pressure cooker of all time they do resolve it via productive conversation on their own time. its fine) #the party well-meaningly tries to deduce things from loop's vagueries and are able to pin down the DEAD FAMILY vibe pretty quickly. #but eventually the question of their prior identity falls by the wayside because well! they're just their friend loop! (also change belief) #as for how The Truth Come Out... this is what i mean by The Isabeau Torment Nexus(tm). which is that i think... isiloop should almost occur #BEFORE isabeau knows who loop is. he's just genuinely charmed by them eventually and tries to close the open end of the polycule #which FREAKS LOOP THE FUCK OUT because thats just too genuinely sick and wrong. and obviously w emotions high its not a great confrontation #ANYWAY told u i had more thoughts. if i were normal itd be a text post but.

people being actually confused, or somehow disappointed?? by the random npcs in the first episode? couldn't be me. absolute highlight of the entire thing. these are my people.

justice for balthazar, the bad kids deserved to taste that chilli one last time

#plus battle episodes are usually pretty hard for me. so the breaks in the monotony were needed. #(which isn't a complaint! dnd is the medium and I realize that's more of a taste thing than any sort of problem lol) #anyway I'm just shocked that I've seen multiple folks who had trouble catching on #felt like it was projected pretty clear we were coming in at the end of the Night Yorb journey. and that these guys were from that. #dimension 20 #fantasy high junior year #d20 fhjy #fantasy high

#yugioh arc v #ygo arc v #arc v #zuzu boyle #yuzu hiiragi #celina #serena #rin #lulu obsidian #ruri kurosaki #arc v art #my art #drawing this made me realize how much more similar zuzu + co. look to each other compared to yuya + co #zuzu and celina in particular have pretty much exactly the same hair just in different colors + worn differently #rin + lulu are the outliers with shorter + longer hair respectively but even they still have the two strands framing their face #i kinda struggled with rin tbh i feel like i don't have a good grasp on her personality and it comes across when i draw her #but i ended up feeling like high pigtails / low pigtails / high ponytail / low ponytail was a good contrast between everyone #(and rin with her hair down just looked like lulu) #their colors don't clash nearly as bad as yuya + co.'s do either so there's a bit more cohesion among them - #- which is ironic considering the boys are the ones with identity issues and the girls are the ones with greater independence comparatively #but i've said too much already...(tugs my hat down and walks away pensively)

I think I already talked about this and I've seen others mention it but it's been on my mind again:

Is it weird that grian is usually drawn looking like a teenager or just a kid in general while the others look like adults

#stiff talk #ive been thinking about this #and it so fucking weird #ill see art that look absolutely beautiful and then grian just? looks like a literal child? while all the others look like adults???? #so its not an issue of style or whatever #idk i find it really weird #what is it aboht grian that makes people physically unable to draw him as an adult- /silly #i could also talk about the fact that grian. the one whos shown as a kid and who has a pretty high voice. is the one whos usually portrayed- #-as transmasc #which dont get me wrong i like trans grian #but it kinda feels like? why is grian the only one who youre able to hc as trans???? #idk #maybe im just being too bitchy aboht this but its been kinda bothering me DJCJDKFK

[asofterepilogue]

I will say though. olrox being like "lol mizrak I wouldn't turn you because I'm not in love with you at all" is a little bit funny when he immediately reveals himself the moment mizrak is in a sticky spot, despite saying he can't be seen doing anything for the moment. it's rushed af and ok maybe he's not in love the same way. but it's definitely not nothing either.

#I mean he even says he doesn't want mizrak to die which... is pretty much the same sentiment? #anyway olrox is the second main reason why I want to watch s2 I have high hopes for him #(main reason being that there's never gonna be new content for the first castlevania series so I have to take what I can get) #castlevania nocturne #castlevania spoilers #mine #castlevania

Look Kristen is a kid so its understandable and Ally is great and I'm sure has a plan for this. But Kristen should not be a cleric lol. I hope that after the wizard synogue incident Cassandra takes the Archfey deal to keep herself safe and Kristen loses her powers because honestly based on her RP that girl has NO wisdom. She has NEGATIVE wisdom. If you don't like the gods currently on offer but can't take responsibility for keeping a new one alive (because you're a kid) then you should just respec. Pick a charisma-based spellcaster class that doesn't require a bunch of work like the Int classes or responsibility like the Wis classes. Give up your soul to Fig (or just give it back to newly-Archfey Cassandra) for Warlock spells idk.

#like I know kristen is a vessel for exploring the experience of growing up in an abrahamic religion and like. developing as your own person #which is why they're working within the existing forgotten realms universe but foregoing the usual pantheon #and replacing it with Sol and Helio which are just God and Jesus metaphors #but that kind of self-exploration usually ends up in either atheism or non-abrahamic philosophies like buddhism no? #neither of which are compatible with the cleric class. like kristen clearly doesnt really like being a prophet. she cant handle it #have her awaken latent sorcery or something. I'd honestly accept her becoming a druid even though they also have a lot of responsibilities #but like shes GONNA kill cassandra if cassandra doesnt leave her first #and that'll be the second god that she created and then killed with her neglect. she may have been helio's chosen but shes a shit cleric #pretty much all teenagers would be shit clerics #maybe she can come back to it later #but cassandra girl you gotta flee. take your cat and your magic and run #d20 #fantasy high #fhjy #kristen applebees #fantasy high junior year #dimension 20

basically

#THIS WAS HARDER THAN IT LOOKS #i moved jean from butchy femme to butch because of peer pressure #but i guess its still true #and thea for a moment i thought she could fit in futch but then i remembered her one scene had her wearing a pastel skirt so #riko high femme i know is controversial but i feel like hes kind of fierce like that sorry #soft butch jeremy felt very correct no notes on that one #lets see. i had kevin in high femme but actually i think he wouldnt be so far in the scale #i feel like hes respectably on the femme side but not like. insanely high femme like myself #as in i dont wear pants and i buy wedding veils to use in my daily life #AND RENEE i wanted her in butch i really did but i dont think thats true for her in canon #i think actually in canon renee is really like a normal pretty girl which im obsessed with #remember when even neil said her smile was pretty. yeah #and jean's thoughts coming to a halt when he saw her face <3 #so yeah. we need a real butch in aftg and andrew doesnt count #wheres the alvarez butch prayer circle #alvarez boy shorts and white tank top prayer circle #txt #foxes

haven't been this fucking insanely furious at Williams since they fired Damon Hill halfway through 1996

#this is SUCH a horrible decision for them both #while i think there is a short term chance that Alex may produce a better race result #the car is pretty naff so the chances are low #and now alex has enormous pressure on his shoulders #if he makes another mistake and tbh that's likely because the car is not ideal and he's now in a high pressure situation which he #historically speaking #does not do well in #(also despite the heroics in the first year at williams he actually doesn't get on with Melbourne very well) #but if he does that he looks like an arsehole and the team look like arseholes and the press will call alex a villain #and meanwhile in the medium to long term #logan's just been told the team has so little confidence in him they believe a driver who destroyed his car will do better #which is going to knock anyone for absolutely fuckin six #like if you empathised with alex at red bull you have to empathise with logan here #mr vowles i am booking a fight i am coming to fight you

Do you ever wonder if maybe the reason that so many fiction podcasts have eye related imagery is because it's one of the only non visual forms of media these days? Because to tell a story with no visuals is to allow the audience to truly see, without boundaries or restrictions.

#Just makes me think‚ yknow.... #Like‚ story podcasts are often so based upon the imagined visuals which means they suit a much wider audience #To see with the minds eye is the most powerful sight of all 👁️👁️👁️👁️ #This sounds like an 'I'm high and this is deep' quote but I promise it's genuine 💀😭 #tma #the magnus archives #jonathan sims #Wtnv #welcome to night vale #cecil palmer #(I'm pretty sure there's another podcast that uses it?? But I don't know what it's called)

Sometimes when I’m really high I decide I’m a philosopher and write all of my thoughts in my notes app for future consideration and I just. I need everyone to witness. What the fuck I wrote last night.

Why am I a comedic genius while high?

#also why tf did i drag jacob like that😭? #the michelangelos thing is actually a pretty good idea tho #editing the tags to clarify that im pretty sure the miss peregrines thing was completely about Hugh #which is made ten times funnier if you know that i have severe melissophobia #scott pilgrim #scollace #scott pilgrim takes off #mphfpc #alma lefay peregrine #jacob portman #tmnt #tmnt michelangelo #michelangelo #high thoughts with ethan

To be honest I think a lot of the horror of Elias comes from just how unlikely it is for someone to notice he’s missing

#He doesn’t have anyone close to him and the few people who do know him are only exposed to the casual smiling mask he puts #One that Elias could easily mimic or hell might even be close to the way Elias normally acts given that he has a similar propensity for #masking. Plus ogElias was never stupid. In fact he was known to be very smart. he just didn’t try to reach his full potential. also he didnt #even get high THAT often. he tried to be respectable and put some effort into preparing for an interview with James Wright #In fact the way he yearns for respect. the way he says he’s afraid of spiders. the way he is marked by the eye. hell even the implied #neglectful parent makes me read him as a parallel to Jon. #Which as we know acts pretty similarly to Elias #all things considered #Also Elias was ambitious. Sure he didn’t have the motivation to grab life by the horns as it were but he always thought he was meant for #something better. bigger. and that’s also part of what made his body snatching feel so cruel. #and o feel like a lot of these little tragic details are often ignored by the fandom #Elias Bouchard #original Elias Bouchard #TMA #the Magnus archives

tragically I cannot find the specific post which inspired this but @realbeefman's vampire!wilson au posts are driving me to madness (positive)

bonus doodle heehoo. detail shots and progress pics under the cut :3

(originally it was just gonna be their shoulders and up but I was like "oh YO yknow what would be so sappy and gay" and added the hands + torso)
